Megaton Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 I know some of you guys with winch bumpers have relocated your turn indicators to the marker light. Could you tell me how it's done? The lenses on mine are cracking and getting water and debris in them. I plan on a winch bumper in the future so I need to do it anyway. Thanks for the help.

XPLORx4 Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 You could try something like this: http://www.instructables.com/id/Neat-Turn-Signal-Effects-Circuit/?ALLSTEPS 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferrariowner123 Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 that fancy right there, if i wasn't switching to JDM dual bulb side markers, i would totally do that. -Kyle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenda3 Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 The factory turn plugs fit on the marker lamps. However...it will blink fast using the small peanut bulbs. Or you can fit the sockets into the corner lamps. Cost is free and works great Sent from my LGMS395 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XPLORx4 Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 greenda3- While your suggestion is free, it has caveats (which you mentioned) plus you lose the marker lamp functionality. But it's certainly worth considering if cost is a factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
01Pathmaker Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 If the turn signal socket can be installed in place of the corner marker light, couldn't you just splice in sockets from a 99.5-04? The facelifted R50 uses a dual filiment marker/turn signal combo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferrariowner123 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Its not that the socket is the same, its that the harnesses male plug fits into the female plug on the side marker, the sockets themselves are very different, as well as the bulb size. The side markers are not very bright, i went 4 years before i finally noticed that one was out. -Kyle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megaton Posted November 9, 2015 Author Share Posted November 9, 2015 01Pathmaker,I thought of the same thing but there isn't enough clearance inside the housing of a 97 for a 1157 bulb. The LED arrays are shorter but I will have to check for clearance. The twist in bulb holders are much larger for the turn signal than for the marker so that hole would have to be enlarged. Thanks everyone for the input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
